3 years after the Close the Workhouse campaign emptied the hellish jail, STL has a new plan: to disappear the unhoused population in tiny homes on the hazardous site. Read about directly impacted people are continuing the fight against people in power: bit.ly/ACDjj11
It's budget season #STL! Year after year, our city's budget speaks volumes about our priorities, & it's clear: it favors police over everything else. Let's change that. Join us Thursday, May 2nd, 6-8pm at Deaconess Center for our May Movement Meeting: bit.ly/DRT2024Events
Our 2024 Policy Campaign Grant recipient @ArchCityDefense is building towards a more liberated future through Freedom Summer STL, which will create a space for service, activation, and recommitment to justice and transformation. Learn more: ow.ly/LuR450RiZS1 #FreedomSummer

If you know someone who was killed by police or died in-custody and you’re looking to spend time with others who have experienced something similar, we invite you to come out tonight. If you are not directly impacted but want to support families, the door is open.
Ben & Jerry's in University City are hosting an event dedicated to community, love, and spreading peace one scoop at a time. This year, donations go to ArchCity Defenders! Be there next Tuesday for a free scoop! 🍦

We've never let a little shenanigans at the Public Safety Committee deter us, and we aren't going to start now! Join us for the Briefing on Wednesday to prep and then we'll be back at Public Safety on Thursday for part 2 of the Re-envisioning the Workhouse hearing.
Can you imagine the course of your life changing based on what a couple of strangers say about you in under 10 minutes? That’s the power of a bail hearing. Thank you, @CourtWatchSTL for watching 3,000 of these and sharing what you saw happen to 1,700 people.

#STLCity said they wanted public input on what happens to the former jail, and guess what? There’s a report filled w/ great ideas & they pretty much said- Nah, let’s put unhoused people in tiny sheds on the toxic, isolated, industrial site. We’ll be at City Hall tomorrow, hbu?

Hey y'all. There's a report recommending what should become of the Workhouse & land around it. We're grateful for all of the public input that shapes this vision. We invite you to read, share and keep dreaming and demanding with us. #aftertheworkhouse closetheworkhouse.org
Wishing Keilee Fant were still alive so I could congratulate her on her courage. Will drink one in her honor tonight.
BREAKING: A federal judge has preliminarily approved a $4.5 million settlement in a lawsuit against the City of Ferguson that alleges the City violated thousands of people’s constitutional rights. 🧵
Please share and help get the word out to anyone who spent time in the St. Ann jail during this time. There is compensation to be had and it needs to get to the people who suffered the most harm from this debtors' prison! #stl
Were you jailed by St. Ann between 8/9/2011 and 11/14/2022? If so you, you may be eligible for compensation from our $3.125 million debtors' prison settlement. Money will be distributed based on the number of hours the class member spent detained in St. Ann's jail.
🚨From partners @ArchCityDefense: If jailed by the City of St. Ann for nonpayment of fines and fees between 9/9/11 & 11/14/22, you may be eligible for compensation from their $3.125 million settlement. Visit stannclassaction.com to see if you're eligible to file by 2/28/24!
@KCStar (bit.ly/47yHjcE) reports this includes "ensuring the right to an attorney for anyone brought before a municipal judge." This is key b/c It's sadly possible to be jailed w/o #righttocounsel: when jailing is "civil" the law is complex. Great job @ArchCityDefense !
BREAKING: 6 debtors’ prisons down, 1 to go! Yesterday, federal court preliminarily approved a $2.89 million settlement to be distributed amongst 85,000+ people who were jailed by and or paid fines to Florissant between October 31, 2011, and February 1, 2023.

The @stlcountypd has faced lawsuits over issuing "wanteds" instead of getting an arrest warrant approved by a judge. After a policy change in 2018, misdemeanor wanteds saw a steep fall of more than 80%, and numbers have stayed at those lower levels since: bit.ly/46MPUrx
